Nice work! I like it :)

Only those you wish to include in the official KDE Software releases, you
can have as many other/independent applets in playground as you want
without posting to reviewboard, although generally if you plan to
eventually include some piece of software in the release, it's good to post
to reviewboard from the beginning, it's better for developers to review
small parts of code/iterations than reviewing larger codebase.

It should be soon (~1 month?), you can find the general release plans here:
http://techbase.kde.org/Schedules -- the next cycle (4.10) is not yet
there, but judging from past years, the soft feature freeze starts near the
end of October, so any new features you'd like to include in the release
should be ready to be committed by then.

Cheers and keep up the nice work!
